Hearing the familiar voice, Aunt Zhang immediately braked suddenly, but due to inertia, she still rushed forward a short distance and was only a few steps away from Su Qingning. She could hit the other person as long as she hit her with the broom in her hand.

Su Qingyu, who had been waving his hands to hit Su Qingning, immediately stopped struggling. He raised his head and stared at Su Qingning with wide eyes, along with Aunt Zhang, in astonishment. They both uttered puzzled sounds.

"elder sister?"

"Miss Third?"

Su Qingning glanced at the two of them speechlessly. She let go of Su Qingyu, glanced at the broom held by Aunt Zhang, and said with her hand on her forehead, "It's me."

Meeting Su Qingning's gaze, Aunt Zhang immediately threw the broom aside, and then asked in embarrassment and confusion: "Third Miss, why are you dressed like this? Your face..."

Nanny Zhang looked at Su Qingning's face and, like Su Qingyu, showed a curious look in her eyes.

"This is called disguise." Su Qingning explained: "I have something to do and need to go out for a while, so I disguised myself a little."

"Wow~ Disguise, sister is so amazing, she has completely changed into a different person, I didn't even recognize her." Su Qingyu looked at Su Qingning with admiration and immediately became a sister fan.

Su Qingning gently rubbed Su Qingyu's hair and said softly, "Sister will teach you later. Now you just be good and stay at home to protect mother and Aunt Zhang, okay?"

"Okay~" Su Qingyu nodded obediently.

After the misunderstanding was resolved, Su Qingning planned to leave. However, before leaving, she glanced at Yun Ruopiao's room, because from the beginning, she had been hearing Xiaobai's cry for help in her sea of ​​consciousness.

Su Qingning simply chose to ignore it, and even sent a message to Xiaobai: "Xiaobai, the house is now in your hands. Protect mother and Xiaoyu, and don't let anyone else hurt them."

After saying that, Su Qingning left immediately, leaving Xiaobai with a look of despair in his eyes, being held in Yun Ruopiao's arms and taking a nap with her.

……

After leaving Jinyuan, Su Qingning drank a bottle of invisibility potion, and then walked out of the Su family's gate openly and boldly.

Seeing that no one noticed her, Su Qingning couldn't help but sigh that it was really great to have a master who was a god-level pharmacist.

Su Qingning drank a primary invisibility potion, which only lasted for an hour. She wandered around the streets for a while, and when the time was almost up, she hid in a secluded alley, waiting for the potion's effect to wear off before emerging.

Coming out of the alley, Su Qingning walked forward with a purpose. While she was invisible, she had found several medicine shops. Through observation, she found that the medicine shop called Huichuntang had the best business, and the managers and servants there were relatively friendly.

When Su Qingning entered Huichuntang, it was just past its busiest hour, and there were only three customers left in the shop: a man, a woman, and a young man in a green brocade robe.

After the man and woman left, Su Qingning first glanced at the young man in blue standing in front of the counter. Seeing that the other party had no intention of leaving, she did not plan to wait any longer, but walked directly to the counter.

When Shopkeeper Liu saw a customer coming, he immediately smiled. However, when he saw Su Qingning, he was stunned for a moment before asking, "Young Master, are you looking for medicinal herbs?"

"No." Su Qingning shook her head slightly. She looked at Shopkeeper Liu and asked politely, "Excuse me, do you sell medicinal herbs here?"

Hearing the voice, the young man in blue who was looking at the account book turned around. When he saw Su Qingning, he was obviously stunned for a moment, and he also understood why Manager Liu added a small word before the word "Young Master"; because the other party was really young.

His frail frame was wrapped in a simple blue shirt, his ordinary face dotted with freckles, and his pair of dark eyes looked clear and innocent. In terms of height, the little guy in front of him probably didn't even reach his chest, and looked about eight or nine years old.

Shopkeeper Liu first glanced at the young man in green clothes, and after seeing him nod, he smiled and answered Su Qingning's question, "Yes, I do. I wonder what medicinal herbs this young master wants to sell?"

Su Qingning saw all the little movements of the two people. At this moment, she already understood that the young man in blue clothes next to her was the one who was in charge of Huichun Hall.

She didn't say anything, nor did she intend to point out the identity of the young man in green. Instead, she looked at Shopkeeper Liu and replied, "They are just some primary and mid-level medicinal herbs."

In fact, Su Qingning's space contained many precious medicinal herbs, including high-grade, holy-grade, and even divine-grade ones. However, she didn't intend to sell them all. Su Qingning understood the principle of "it's a crime to possess a treasure", so she decided to sell some primary-grade and mid-grade medicinal herbs.

Of course, when she learns how to make potions in the future, she won’t have to sell herbs anymore, but potions instead.

"Of course." Shopkeeper Liu nodded and said with a smile, "As long as the herbs are in good condition, Huichuntang will accept them."

"What's the price?" Su Qingning asked, "What price are you planning to pay for my herbs?"

Hearing Su Qingning's words, the young man in blue and Shopkeeper Liu were both stunned. They had never seen anyone negotiate the price before seeing the goods.

However, since Su Qingning was here to sell medicinal herbs, she was also a customer, so they would naturally respect her and do business in her way.

Shopkeeper Liu smiled and said, "Young Master, I won't cheat you. I'll trade with you at the market price. One primary-level herb for five gold coins, and one mid-level herb for fifteen gold coins. How about that?"

Su Qingning thought about it and felt that the price was fair, so she nodded and agreed, "Okay, sure."

Since the price had been agreed upon, Su Qingning took out the medicinal herbs to be sold from the space.

Before going out, Su Qingning put on a ring on her hand, pretending it was a storage ring. In this way, even if she took something from the space, it would not arouse suspicion.

Seeing the hundreds of herbs suddenly appear on the counter, the young man in green and Shopkeeper Liu were stunned again. They had thought that the little guy in front of them could only take out two or three herbs at most, but they didn't expect reality to give them a slap in the face.

"That's all, please count them!" Su Qingning said lightly.

"Okay, please wait a moment." Shopkeeper Liu nodded blankly, then began to count the herbs one by one.

Su Qingning waited quietly, but there was a bright gaze beside her that was hard to ignore.

Su Qingning didn't like being stared at, but the person in question was most likely the owner of Huichuntang, with whom she was currently negotiating a deal. Su Qingning didn't want the already negotiated deal to be ruined by her impulsiveness, so she suppressed her impatience and chose to ignore the person.

The young man in blue was actually Xie Yichen, the third young master of the Xie family, one of the five major families. Today, he had come to inspect the shop under the Xie family's name on a whim, but he didn't expect to see such an interesting child.
